Forward Single Leg Tuck Jumps
Purpose: Advanced plyometric. Power. Fast twitch muscle recruitment. Athletic coordination.
Quick Coaching Cues
- Complete for your desired distance, walk back and repeat on the opposite leg.
- Stay tall on one leg and explode up while driving the opposite knee through.
- Land softly on the same leg with your knee slightly bent and core braced.
- Reset your balance quickly between reps and keep the movement controlled.
Common Mistakes
- Not resetting the arms back in the air.
- Letting the knee cave inward on landing.
- Rushing the next jump before fully controlling the single-leg landing.
- Landing stiff-legged instead of absorbing through the ankle, knee, and hip.
